Obama has said many things proven to be untrue. He has made many predictions that have not occurred. He has made many promises, all broken. Eric Holder announced he was going to try Khalid Sheik Mohamed and his side-kicks in downtown New York because the rules for evidence were a lot more favorable in a civilian Court than a Military Tribunal.
Opening statements are beginning with those “in the know” divided over whether the trial of Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani should open the door to a civilian trial for Khalid Sheik Mohammed and others. Ghailani is charged with conspiring with others including Osama bin Laden to blow up two U.S. embassies in Africa in August 1998. The attacks killed 224 people, including 12 Americans. If convicted, Ghailani could face life in prison. He has been accused by the government of being a bomb maker, document forger and aide to bin Laden.
However, prosecutors will proceed without their top witness after the Judge ruled last week that the witness’ testimony that he sold explosives to Ghailani must be excluded because the government only learned about him after Ghailani was water-boarded.
Isn’t that great? The first trial out of the shoot and we’re in trouble already. It’s just another one of those many Obama Administration fiascos. The arrogant ineptness of the whole damned regime is downright scary.
